Mini Yoga Retreats
In Paradise : El Cuyo, Mexico
El Cuyo is a beach lovers dream. The tourists haven’t heard about it yet so you’ll have the beach and the town to yourself for the most part (shhhhhhhh) and the calm waters in the morning make it perfect for heading out on the flat waters to glide on your Standup Paddleboard or kayak or to just go for a beautiful morning stroll along the edge of the clear, emerald waters. We will practice yoga daily in our beachfront studio and our adorable guesthouse is steps from the sea making it the perfect escape to rest, reset, and rejuvenate! The perfect balance of doing and restoring. We’ve included all the highlights of the area plus a pampering massage with our local healer plus a mud ceremony in front of the sea.
This perfect mini-retreat escape consists of 4 nights over a long weekend to reset and rejuvenate the body, mind and spirit. Each day guests will enjoy a 75 minute yoga practice, beach walks, bike rides, standup paddle boarding and sea kayaks as well as 3 delicious meals per day. Accommodations at the gorgeous Utopia El Cuyo : Beach house & Yoga studio will be our home base as we take a few days off to rest and reconnect.
Wild virgin beaches at your front door; open-air yoga practices with a view; delicious local cuisine to nourish the body; connection with nature to nourish the soul. Round out your days with an adventure into these Mayan lands. Explore the amazing pink lagoons of Las Coloradas, visit flamingos in their natural habitat, check out the town by bike, hop on a SUP or a kayak early morning when the sea is still to glimpse those first morning rays of sunshine peaking over the horizon. Learn how to make tamales, sip margaritas, bask in the sunshine and swim in the Emerald Coast. Our optional day trip into the Yucatan Peninsula will take us to the colonial city of Valladolid, the ruins of Ek Balam and a breathtaking cenote to cool off after a day of exploring. We have our incredible massage therapist with us to offer a healing massage in our open air studio and we wrap it all up with a mud ceremony to cleanse and refresh your body and soul.
El Cuyo has our hearts and the world is starting to tune in. Come experience this unspoiled paradise before the droves hit!

If you’re looking for a secluded beach yoga retreat in Mexico, look no further than this incredible offering in El Cuyo. This tiny fishing village located on the edge of the Yucatan peninsula is home to virgin beaches, flamingos, turtles, dolphins, countless birds and tons of sea life. Calling it paradise is not enough…the wild palm trees and dunes reach up to the edge of the sea while the gentle waves crash at the white sandy shore. A plethora of stunning seashells line the beach and you can walk for miles without any disruptions but the kite boarders gliding by on the breeze.
We are trying our best to keep this special spot under the radar and enjoy it as long as possible before the tourist droves hear about its charms and come to find out what all the fuss is about. El Cuyo is believed to be the last hidden treasure on the Gulf of Mexico. Please keep your lips sealed as much as you can but come join us to live this amazing paradise while it lasts.
El Cuyo is located in the Río Lagartos nature reserve, between Holbox Island and the famous pink lagoons of Las Coloradas. It’s a quick and easy drive from Cancun airport but far enough away to really relax and take in the beach life. Your days will be spent lounging by the sea, experiencing nature at its finest and reconnecting with your inner self on your yoga mat by the sea. We can’t think of a better way to spend your retreat.
